# KartikPrabhu tantek: lol! no I give 2 examples of Left Past and 3 of Left Future unless you can only counting indieweb sites ;)
# KartikPrabhu in anycase, number of examples wasn't the reason for my choice
# KartikPrabhu aah sure.
# KartikPrabhu but you also start at the first page of the book not the last ;)
# KartikPrabhu we are probably retreading our discussion from easrlier :P
# KartikPrabhu yup! and on list of posts on the web you start from most recent post
# KartikPrabhu which is the "first" page
# KartikPrabhu the next page is then to the right
# KartikPrabhu I don't have arrow things on my permalinks :)
# KartikPrabhu only on "feed"/list pages
# KartikPrabhu nope
# KartikPrabhu not on each post no

# [jgmac1106] How I start every lesson on Concepts about Print:
# [jgmac1106] though I have been arguing at literacy research our definition of concept of print must change to account for the web

# [jgmac1106] So I am trying to learn more about endpoints so I can figure out if I can get OmniBear to Syndicate to twitter through Known and you end up stumbling through history: https://indieweb.org/2011/How_the_Indie_Web_Hooks_into_Hosted_Communities
# [jgmac1106] Our definition of the first page must change. I went from indieweb.org but opened a new tab, was it the search engine?, indieweb.org, or the second link I clicked using my search terms?

# Loqi Ghost is an an open source blogging software project written in node.js, and also a hosted silo at https://ghost.org https://indieweb.org/Ghost
# tantek Thom_M mixed experience so far, some interest in Webmention, yet the key underyling markup was reject in a pull request: https://indieweb.org/Ghost#IndieWeb_Friendly
# [Thom_M] Right on. Thanks, guys

# [Thom_M] Well, the theme I'm modding has a disqus section built into it, so the path of least resistance is probably to fork the theme, rip out disqus, and replace it with webmentions.

# pjz how does indieweb interact with the federated social network scene? love/hate/indifferent?
KartikPrabhu joined the channel
# Loqi Webmention is a web standard for mentions and conversations across the web, a powerful building block that is used for a growing federated network of comments, likes, reposts, and other rich interactions across the decentralized social web https://indieweb.org/Webmention
KapiX joined the channel
# KartikPrabhu what is federated social network?
# Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "federated social network" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "federated social network is ____", a sentence describing the term)
# Loqi federation in the context of the indieweb refers to services and features on indieweb sites that work directly with other indieweb sites peer-to-peer, without having to setup or create accounts in both places, and without being bottlenecked by any kind of centralized service or silo https://indieweb.org/federated
# tantek federated social network is /federated
# KartikPrabhu tantek: is that what the question by pjz meant?

# Zegnat https://chat.indieweb.org/2018-05-02/1525219455687000 - good to know the pile of manga I have lying about are “traditional japanese books” ;) AFAIK all manga, even translated to English, is published in a right-to-left page format. (That is, you start at the “last” page of the book, from a Western view point.)

# Zegnat Portland has its own pages with all the links, e.g.: https://indieweb.org/events/2018-03-14-homebrew-microblog
# Zegnat Baltimore does list them on the wiki: https://indieweb.org/events/2018-05-01-homebrew-website-club#Baltimore_MD
# Zegnat This all comes back to the age-old discussion of event organisers feeling they do not reach people through the wiki, I guess. https://indieweb.org/events/2018-05-02-homebrew-website-club#N.C3.BCrnberg does not link to https://www.facebook.com/events/925100131002522/ probably because jkphl is not a big wiki user himself and has a better visit rate from the FB event.
# jeremycherfas vHWC tonight?
markong joined the channel
# jeremycherfas I wasn't planning on organising. Don't really know what is involved, especially for vHWC. I guess we can all use sknebel's Mumble, although I have no idea what to do if there are problems.
# jeremycherfas I think it would be useful to have a discussion around auth. There have been so many changes lately that I am definitely confused, and if it results in me being able to do a write up, that would be a bonus.

# jmac A website way out yonder linked to a blog post of mine. The first thing I thought was "hey cool" and the second thing I thought was "Oh boy, a non-Bridgy webmention source I can paste in!" and the third thing was "Uhhh I should test this locally first, because my WM implementation is probably so rubbish that it would burn down my blog."

# aaronpk even if not, there's still the danger of parsing only the exact mf2 structure that bridgy produces rather than the quite varied markup that exists elsewhere. see /authorship
# jmac [snarfed]: Yes. And let it never be said I was proud. But: https://metacpan.org/pod/Web::Mention
# jmac Ohh, I misread. That's my WM parser, my MF2 parser is here: https://metacpan.org/pod/Web::Microformats2
# pstuifzand I also have one that I use in my website, written a few weeks ago
# pstuifzand but not really following the spec I think and very alpha

# petermolnar that's some modern perl

# [John] Hello indieweb! Thanks for introducing me to Omnibear. It looks like a great tool but I'm having difficulty getting it to work with Known. Has anyone been successful at this?
# [John] Feel free to tell me to RTFM if I'm missing something obvious. :)
# [John] When trying to reply to a post I get "Error authenticating to micropub endpoint. Try logging out and logging back in. " I followed their advice but it didn't work.
# [John] Strange since the set up seemed to work (I'm using Known as my blog)
todrobbins joined the channel
# [John] When I look at the Auth details in Omnibear it seems OK. Domain name, micropub endpoint and token are all set up.
# [John] Is there another way I could test my micropub endpoint? I've been able to podt previously to my site using Quill and Indigenous.
todrobbins and calumryan joined the channel
# [chrisaldrich] [John] I think that [jgmac1106] has been using Omnibear with Known recently. Not sure if he's been having any issues, and if I recall he's running the older 0.99 "official" release instead of the github master branch.

# [John] Thanks Chris, I'll look into it
todrobbins and jgmac1106_ joined the channel
# jgmac1106_ [chrisalrich] [john] Yes I have tried Omnibear with my Known. I can publish to Known, but I have not configured out how to set up the endpoints in the OmniBear settings to it syndicates to Twitter (if I even can)
# jgmac1106_ So an important side effect in my classes where I focus on owning your own data and domain is how more open students become. The ignite talk in these classes have been amazing and I don’t think I would have gotten their without the focus on controlling identity. My students have discussed: mental illness in college, overcoming addiction, coming out,admitting to class they suffer addiction, being a teen mom, being a homeless college student. Real
# jgmac1106_ stories I may not have gotten with a focus on controlling your own narrative

# [John] jgmac1106_ it's good to know this is possible. I must have done something wrong in the registration process. Thanks for confirming!
# Zegnat Wow. That latest write-up by sgreger is huge and thought provoking! His way of “verifying” webmentions is interesting as well. Good stuff. Link for people who haven’t seen it yet: https://sebastiangreger.net/2018/05/indieweb-privacy-challenge-webmentions-backfeeds-gdpr/
